What the ministry says is wrong

 燃料タンク製造時の溶接のカス(微粒子)が完全に取り除かれていないため、当該カス が燃料ポンプに吸い込まれ、燃料ポンプの摺動部を磨耗させる。あるいは、燃料フィルタ ーに付着することがあり、この場合、原動機への燃料の供給量が不足するため、原動機の 出力低下または急加速時の息つきが発生するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

 全車両、燃料タンク内を洗浄するとともに、燃料ポンプ及び燃料フィルターを交換する 。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

Source: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism website (出典:国土交通省ウェブサイト), used under the Public Data License 1.0. This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered. CarsMultiverse is not the ministry and not a safety authority. To act on this notice, use the ministry's own document.

The Japanese register on this site

フォード elsewhere in this register

フォード is named on 125 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 燃料タンク

200 notices in this register name 燃料タンク. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a Ford: 125 in the register, and 70 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 1994.
